Nominal Roll

No official nominal roll for the 4th Battalion NF exists, however, I now hold data on over 10,000 fusiliers who served with the 1/4th, 2/4th, 3/4th and 4th Reserve Battalions between 1908 and 1919. The extent of the data held on each fusilier varies considerably. Unfortunately, for many it is limited to the fusiliers' surname and initials, while with others their name, rank, service number, date and place of birth, date and place of enlistment, date and place of death, discharge or capture, memorial location, home address, obituary, photograph and medals awarded are known. Many fusiliers enlisted in the 4th NF, but were transferred to other Battalions on completion of their training.

Provide me with as much information on the fusilier or individual as you can and I will search my database to identify fusiliers that fit the description. See Terms and Conditions of Search

Note: The searchable database on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website (www.cwgc.org) is the best place to start if the fusilier was killed in action or subsequently died of wounds.

Don't be disheartened if you cannot find the fusilier you are looking for, he may have been in another battalion of the Northumberland Fusiliers. By the end of the 1st World War more than fifty battalions had been raised by this Regiment!

Surnames and initials of fusiliers held on the 4th Battalion database are set out below in alphabetical order. Select the appropriate letter (eg. 'S' for Smith, JM;).

About This Site

I have been researching the 4th (Territorial) Battalion of the Northumberland Fusiliers, for the period 1908 to 1919, for a few years now. It began as a family history project, to determine what happened to my Great Grandfather during the 1st World War. However, the lengths to which I had to go in order to reconstruct his short military career, convinced me of the need for a written account of the 4th battalions’ exploits.
This website is the result. The site comprises short accounts of all the actions the 4th NF took part in, a database of all those who served with the battalion and a detailed day to day account which can be accessed for a small fee. Needless to say my family history project has not resurfaced!
